I know that he is not in Styx, but he did co-write some of the songs on the last Styx album, as well as the last few Tommy Shaw solo albums. What I meant is that TS songs are now Shaw/Blades productions. Certainly the TS songs on _BNW_ could have easily come off one of his solo albums.

Whatcha wanna bet that the next Styx album will be produced by Jack Blades with 3/4 of the songs being Shaw/Blades co-writes.
